I tried the Eglot integration, my comments elsewhere are inspired by
that.

I found it rather clumsy out of the box.  However, it works well with an
approach of adding bindings for individual kinds, as is currently how I
(and other Eglot users at Jane Street, and presumably most other Eglot
users everywhere) use Eglot.  So that compatibility with an
already-common approach is an upside of this integration.

However, the alternative UI which shows all kinds of definitions in a
single buffer does not exist for Eglot in the same way it exists for
Elisp.  So... I can't really compare it to that.
